Reggefiber, a major fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) broadband operator in the Netherlands , is rolling out an optical fibre network to three cities in the Netherlands based on the Cisco Internet Protocol Next-Generation Network (IP NGN) architecture and using Cisco Ethernet FTTH (E-FTTH) technology. Reggefiber owns an extensive FTTH network in The Netherlands and current planned projects will add approximately 100,000 to 200,000 households making Reggefiber's FTTH coverage the largest in The Netherlands. Reggefiber is active in a number of cities in The Netherlands and has recently started laying fibre in the city of Deventer . It will extend the FTTH network to the city of Almere and another city within the next few months. The network will give residents access to broadband speeds of up to 100Mbit/s initially, and up to 1Gbit/s in the future, making it possible to deliver advanced services, such as standard and high-definition IPTV, video on demand, voice over IP services and high-speed Internet services, delivered over a single broadband connection. Reggefiber has plans to offer FTTH-based broadband services to the majority of residents in The Netherlands.
